Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Don't set your goals by what other people deem important.
Only you know what is best for you.
Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life,
for without them, life is meaningless.
Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.
By living your life one day at a time,
you live ALL the days of your life.
Don't give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect.
It is this fragile thread that binds us each together.
Don't be afraid to encounter risks.
It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find time.
The quickest way to receive love is to give;
the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;
and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don't run through life so fast
that you forget not only where you've been,
but also where you are going.
Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need
is to feel appreciated.
Don't be afraid to learn.
Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savoured each step of the way.
Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is a Mystery and Today is a gift, that's why we call it The Present
Thank u all soooo much 4 ur kind words and support. It really means alot. I have not really been myself the last couple of days, but I am getting there 🙂
This morning, my sister picked Maddison up.... I did not even have the energy 2 get out of bed. I felt ill and just slept 4 most of the morning I got up at 2pm this afternoon. I think I needed the rest.... altho I was really pleased when my sister dropped Maddison back I could not stop hugging her 🙂
I woke up feeling alot better, I am feeling much stronger now than I was and I am slowly getting there. For once I am not pushing myself 2 hard I am just allowing myself 2 feel wot I am feeling and not pushing this 2 one side. My friends and family have been gr8 the last couple of days. I am really lucky 🙂
Also I can't believe how many people have supported me on here the last cpl of days, ur kind words have meant so much during this tough time. I am grateful 2 u all 🙂
I hope everyone else is ok and staying strong x

Thanks 4 all ur posts and kind words 🙂
I'm feeling much stronger and proud of myself 4 coming thru a tough time without gambling that is a gr8 achievement and one that makes me realise that this attempt at stopping gambling is different this time 🙂
Taking Maddison swimming in a bit she really likes the water now. She is 1 in a cpl of wks how time flies!!
In a reflective mood 2day, this journey has been a tough one 4 me. But I have never forgotten who I really am... My thoughts 4 today r be true 2 urself, do ur best and as long as u do that u can stand tall. I always say the truth always comes out in the end!!!! We are all just trying 2 stay gamble free and if we can help others along the way that's gr8... It is something 2 be proud off 🙂
